Answer to Question 1

An important aspect of reading is lexical access the identification of a word that allows us to retrieve the meaning of the word from memory. Most psychologists who study reading believe that lexical access is an interactive process. It combines information of different kinds, such as the features of letters, the letters themselves, and the words comprising the letters

Answer to Question 2

1 . Phonological awareness, which refers to awareness of the sound structure of spoken language (recognizing the different sounds that make up a word).
2 . Phonological reading, which entails reading words in isolation. Individuals with dyslexia often have more trouble recognizing the words in isolation than in context.
3 . Phonological coding in working memory. When people have difficulty storing phonemes in working memory and tend to confuse them more often, reading becomes increasingly difficult.
4 . Lexical access, which entails one's ability to retrieve phonemes from long-term memory. For example, how fast can a reader recognize the word pond when he sees it?
